Louisiana opened the 2019 season, the second campaign under Gerry Glasco’s guidance, last weekend with dominant pitching performances and powerful swings in outscoring foes 65-4 in the Ragin’ Cajuns Classic at Lamson Park.

Seven different players contributed at least one home run, led by three from Lexie Comeaux and two from Raina O’Neal, as the offense generated 10 homers and 25 total extra base hits.

In the pitching circle, Summer Ellyson posted four wins and yielded only four runs in 25 innings and freshman Kandra Lambstarted off her collegiate career with back-to-back no-hitters.
